&lt;p style="margin:0;padding-bottom:8px;"&gt;Our Experimenting with Magnetic Components Competition a(n) collaboration/association with Bourns, has now launched.&amp;nbsp; The 10 challengers will use the &lt;a class="jive-link-wiki-small" href="/challenges-projects/design-challenges/experimenting-with-magnetic-components/w/documents/23177/experimenting-with-magnetic-components-about-the-competition#kit"&gt;Magnetic Components kit&lt;/a&gt; to experiment, test, build, or just play around with transformers, inductors, line filters, and more in their projects.&amp;nbsp; These Challengers will receive a Challenger Kit for FREE.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin:0;padding:0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin:0;padding-bottom:8px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Please join us in congratulating the official sponsored Challengers.&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; We look forward to reading all your initial blogs introducing your project designs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Smart Coin Sorter&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Synopsis:&lt;/strong&gt; Experiment and build an oscillator for use in a smart coin sorter and see the possibility of using any of the coils as the transmitter coil, study what possible filters can attenuate noise.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a class="jive-link-blog-small" href="/search?q=*&amp;amp;category=#serpauthor=212525&amp;amp;serpgroup=358&amp;amp;serpcategory=blog"&gt;Enrique Albertos&amp;#39;s project blogs&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a name="name2"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Test Gan Quick Mobile Charger Different CMC&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Synopsis:&lt;/strong&gt; Experiment with different common mode chokes in a GaN Mobile charger with 65W output.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a class="jive-link-blog-small" href="/search?q=*&amp;amp;category=#serpauthor=18726&amp;amp;serpgroup=358&amp;amp;serpcategory=blog"&gt;F. Yao&amp;#39;s project blogs&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a name="name3"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chokes in the Lab&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Synopsis:&lt;/strong&gt; Experiment with inductors as LAB project building block, including uses, applications and measurement.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a class="jive-link-blog-small" href="/search?q=*&amp;amp;category=#serpauthor=17018&amp;amp;serpgroup=358&amp;amp;serpcategory=blog"&gt;Jan Cumps&amp;#39;s project blogs&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a name="name4"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Experimenting with Magnetic Components&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Synopsis:&lt;/strong&gt; I am interested to experiment the challenge kit in using for the practical testing laboratory to design the suitable circuits and to study their I-V characteristics.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a class="jive-link-blog-small" href="/search?q=*&amp;amp;category=#serpauthor=173602&amp;amp;serpgroup=358&amp;amp;serpcategory=blog"&gt;karthickiot&amp;#39;s project blogs&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a name="name5"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Filtering Output Noise 5volt Mobile Charger&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Synopsis:&lt;/strong&gt; Using a spare old phone charger with high output noise, I want to build a circuit that can filter this noise.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a class="jive-link-blog-small" href="/search?q=*&amp;amp;category=#serpauthor=414964&amp;amp;serpgroup=358&amp;amp;serpcategory=blog"&gt;manojroy&amp;#39;s project blogs&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a name="name6"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Go Discrete: Go Power&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Synopsis:&lt;/strong&gt; Use the kit&amp;#39;s radial inductor parts for designing the buck-convertor stage and experiment with common mode chokes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a class="jive-link-blog-small" href="/search?q=*&amp;amp;category=#serpauthor=323116&amp;amp;serpgroup=358&amp;amp;serpcategory=blog"&gt;navadeepganeshu&amp;#39;s project blogs&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a name="name7"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ideal vs Real Inductors&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Synopsis:&lt;/strong&gt; Experiment and compare an ideal inductor with no parasitics, perfect linear impedance vs frequency plot, no SRF, no DCR vs a real/practical/non-ideal model of inductor. I will also talk about the importance of SRF and Q-factor and how a single inductor can behave as a tank circuit at higher frequencies thereby severely affecting the performance of the circuits.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a class="jive-link-blog-small" href="/search?q=*&amp;amp;category=#serpauthor=230652&amp;amp;serpgroup=358&amp;amp;serpcategory=blog"&gt;rsjawale24&amp;#39;s project blogs&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a name="name8"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Experimenting with Magnetic Components&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Synopsis:&lt;/strong&gt; Experiment with a line filter to check for possible scope of frequency signal entering into input power. I will also experiment with various kit inductors to find the quantity of fluctuation reduction when a fluctuating current flows and storing electric energy as magnetic energy. I would like to experiment with Pulse Transformers to turn ON and OFF using a switch at an operating frequency and a pulse duration that delivers the required amount of power.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a class="jive-link-blog-small" href="/search?q=*&amp;amp;category=#serpauthor=218846&amp;amp;serpgroup=358&amp;amp;serpcategory=blog"&gt;Swathi C&amp;#39;s project blogs&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a name="name9"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Multi-Inductor Interleaved Boost Converter&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Synopsis:&lt;/strong&gt; Experiment with an Interleaved boost converter that is suited for high power application due to lower ripple content in current. I will investigate the performance variation of IBC with the change of inductor value because inductance has a big impact on input current ripple and output voltage ripple.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a class="jive-link-blog-small" href="/search?q=*&amp;amp;category=#serpauthor=35163&amp;amp;serpgroup=358&amp;amp;serpcategory=blog"&gt;Taifur&amp;#39;s project blogs&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a name="name10"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Power Supply Noise Rejection Filters for Sensitive Devices&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Synopsis:&lt;/strong&gt; I&amp;#39;ll use this Magnetic components kit to create multiple power supply topologies.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a class="jive-link-blog-small" href="/search?q=*&amp;amp;category=#serpauthor=102436&amp;amp;serpgroup=358&amp;amp;serpcategory=blog"&gt;vinayyn&amp;#39;s project blogs&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:inherit;font-style:inherit;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Congratulations to all our selected challengers!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin:0;padding:0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
